In this dynamic world, Technology plays a significant role in the learning. It is an established fact that one can have a strong grip on the concept of science and technology by seeking logic and reasoning behind them rather than just mugging them up. The youth of today is brimming with curiosity and inquisitiveness. They are perpetually on the move. The rapid pace of technological advancement has made it imperative for us to be well informed in the global scenario. Each day in our life dawns with new challenges to be faced. One needs to be geared up to face these challenges with determination, righteousness and well directed thoughts. All these geared mechanisms are boosted only with the help of practical aspects which are only and only possible on the floor of “workshop” A workshop is an informative or instructional class focused on teaching specialized skill or exploring a particular subject. The workshop has eight constituent shops viz, Machine Shop, Sheet Metal shop, Fitting Shop, Electrical and Electronics Shop, Welding Shop, Carpentry Shop, Forging shop and Foundry Shop.
The engineering workshops have two main functions. Firstly its resources and facilities are utilized for academic work and training of engineering undergraduates. Experiments as well as training sessions are conducted for the first and second year undergraduates in the areas of manufacturing practices, workshop technology, production engineering and technology. In addition to these, the manufacturing of is also carried out in the workshops.
The other function includes the manufacture/fabrication of necessary hardware for student projects, for teaching and research, maintenance of machines and equipment and a variety of fabrication work for the institution.
